Charlize Theron shaves her head for ‘Mad Max’

Charlize Theron has prepared for the much-anticipated new “Mad Max” movie by shaving her head.

The Oscar winner showed off her new buzz cut in Hollywood on Monday.

She’ll portray Furiosa in “Mad Max 4: Fury Road,” which is set to start shooting this summer after a two-year delay.

Theron has been attached to the project since 2009, and she can’t wait to team up with Tom Hardy on the set: “It’s been three years. It’s time to skin this cat already!”

She tells Us Weekly magazine, “The original ‘Mad Max’ created such a vivid world, so to go back and re-imagine it and re-play in that sandbox sounds like fun to me. It’s a really challenging piece of material. … I feel very lucky.”
